Matilda Simpkin, rooting through a cupboard, comes across a small wooden club – an old possession of hers, unseen for more than a decade.\n\nMattie is a woman with a thrilling past and a chafingly uneventful present. During the Women’s Suffrage Campaign she was a militant. Jailed five times, she marched, sang, gave speeches, smashed windows and heckled Winston Churchill, and nothing – nothing – since then has had the same depth, the same excitement.\n\nNow in middle age, she is still looking for a fresh mould into which to pour her energies. Giving the wooden club a thoughtful twirl, she is struck by an idea – but what starts as a brilliantly idealistic plan is derailed by a connection with Mattie’s militant past, one which begins to threaten every principle that she stands for.\n\nOld Baggage is a funny and bittersweet portrait of a woman who has never, never given up the fight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Doubleday","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44989372661813,"sku":"ByrdShop_0857523627","price":58.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780857523624_c60531d0-5d47-4c5c-9381-0011c821895e.jpg?v=1778898373","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/old-baggage-9780857523624","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
